Re: Problem during update

I'm running exactly the same as you Christian.

Update statistics for SuSE 9.2 host karsites (fou4s 0.13.0):
                               Size    After Upd.   To D/L
  6 update(s), total            385kB        0kB      385kB
     5 security update(s)       370kB        0kB      370kB
     1 recommended update(s)     15kB        0kB       15kB

Please run fou4s -i now, to install the downloaded packages.
This run of fou4s 0.13.0 took 60 secs.
karsites:/ #

The download appears to work OK.

When I do fou4s -i --inversecolor nothing happens, the system freezes!

Whats (not) happening Marcus?
